After winning a Grammy and selling over 14 million copies of their debut album Hybrid Theory, nobody could have guessed that lightning would strike twice for Linkin Park. But when the band released Meteora in 2003, all the anticipation was rewarded with an album that no one could have expected. Meteora matched its predecessor in raw, emotional power and bested it with broad, sweeping arrangements. The album showcased a band that would not be restricted by the limitations of the genres. In a lean 35 minutes and 52 seconds, Meteora solidified Linkin Park’s reputation as one of the biggest bands in music.
From the crashing angst of “Faint” to the beautiful, driving beats of “Breaking the Habit,” The String Quartet Tribute to Linkin Park’s Meteora paints a pitch-perfect homage to this career-making album. Decks, drums, and guitars have been traded in for viola, violin and cello. The power and the beauty of this record are translated into sweeping orchestral arrangements by a simple, yet dynamic, string quartet. These instrumental interpretations are an absolute must-have for every fan of Linkin Park and their revolutionary sophomore release.
